The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 247: disintegration crisis

Views:

The out-of-control propulsion unit is still increasing its output, and the direction of propulsion has begun to change randomly. Due to initial design problems, there are a group of small attitude adjustment engines around the propulsion unit. These engines are intelligently controlled by the main thruster—when the latter When something goes wrong, the attitude engine starts running. The entire floating island began to tremble violently under the huge and unstable thrust. Even though the artificial gravity system in each area was trying to adjust the gravity to offset the imbalance caused by the rolling of the floating island, accidents still occurred in many areas. Some old buildings are collapsing and cracking, and the ground surface in some areas is peeling off. The island is under the tearing force beyond the design, and many parts are slowly cracking. The only thing to be thankful for is that the "hoop" is strong enough. Still barely maintaining the integrity of the entire island.

The tumbling of the island allowed Hao Ren and the others to "restore" the gravity environment slightly, but the gravity was skewed and unstable. Everyone stood on the ground awkwardly, looking at the starry sky above them as if they were drunk and moved along. A zigzag track rolled, waiting for news from the elves who were ordered to blow up the propulsion unit. A group of cruisers with missiles has already taken off from the nearest airport. In theory, they should have arrived at the out-of-control fire column outside the high wall, but there is no news yet. Hao Ren looked up at the sky on the other side of the island. He could see that the sun was faintly coming from the sky, and it was covering the sky at an abnormal speed. The Island of Rising Sun ushered in the fastest sunrise ever. And if those elves fail to rescue, this will be the last sunrise it can welcome.

finally. News from the cruiser squad. But it's not good news: all the propulsion nozzles have been operating explosively, and the surroundings are completely inaccessible. The missiles launched in the past were detonated before reaching the predetermined position. Now they are applying for a larger armed spaceship, but it may be too late.

Hao Ren tried hard to think about what he could do to help, and he called the terminal in his heart: "Doesn't the Giant Turtle Rock have a cannon? Give that thruster a shot..."

"It will blow up the entire island, it seems that next time we should prepare some less powerful conventional weapons and put them on the spaceship." The data terminal replied while trying to supply power to the dome, "These broken devices really have tricks. More than half of the machine's energy is sucked away by the thrusters!"

At this moment, Y'zaks suddenly stood up and asked loudly, "Shouldn't it be enough to remove the thrusters outside?"

"Yes..." an elf looked at the giant in surprise, "but it can't get close now."

"I'll probably be able to pass, you guys give me an opening," Y'zaks pointed at the wall, "tell me what the main thruster looks like."

The elf turned pale with fright: "This is sending you to death! There is space outside, and we don't have spacesuits that you can use!"

Y'zaks shrugged: "It doesn't have a big impact, I can survive in space. And I can use it in a spacious place."

Hao Ren stared dumbfounded at this fierce man, and at the same time Lily couldn't help but jumped up beside him: "Can we help? Let's take it apart together..."

The data terminal shouted at the side: "You can't, you haven't evolved specifically for the space environment, even if your body can survive in space for a while, don't expect to be of help. But Hao Ren can follow, he That arm strength is somewhat useful, and he is not affected by the environment."

Hao Ren pointed at himself in surprise: "Me? Go to outer space?"

"There are special corresponding items for your body enhancement. The examiner must be able to work in space. This is the basic ability. The micro-symbiosis device in your body will automatically adjust your skin and respiratory system, provide you with energy, heat and simulated air pressure. The rigid shield can help you filter rays and smaller space floating objects, but don't be exposed to the outside for a long time, you are not a professional space creature after all."

Hao Ren was stunned for a moment: "Since when did I have this function? I just finished strengthening it? Why didn't anyone tell me?"

"Nonsense, Chief Raven didn't even give you the manual, and you have encountered this situation before?" The data terminal urged him to act quickly while talking, "Go, this machine doesn't think this place can last long. Remember, first adapt to the situation where you don’t need to breathe. Calm down and prevent psychological factors from causing convulsions in the respiratory system. Secondly, don’t float too far away from the floating island. You move in space by a simplified coordinate conversion device, which belongs to It is a new gadget that has only been miniaturized in recent years. It is also a small thing that coexists with your cells. Its power is very limited, and it will directly burden your spirit—the main reason is that the thinking organs of people on earth cannot adapt to this high-dimensional conversion. If you fly too far, you may not have the strength to float back."

Hao Ren tried his best to understand and memorize the instructions of the data terminal. He felt that the other party should tell him this earlier, and give himself some time to adapt to this kind of thing that has surpassed the three views of earthlings. No one has ever told him about these abilities, and They are obviously things that require long hours of practice to master. However, Hao Ren didn't complain in the end: he knew very well that this was an unexpected situation today, and Raven probably never thought that he would encounter such trouble so soon.

Many times, many things do not give you time to prepare.

"The two of you are here to help rescue people." Hao Ren patted Lily on the shoulder, "I'll be back as soon as I go."

The elves realized that these strange guys in front of them were not joking, and after a short look at each other, they finally believed that these people did have this ability. Reminiscing that this is the mysterious guest brought back by the queen, they began to believe that there were strange creatures they didn't know about in this world. An elf officer stepped forward: "I'll lead you to the nearest maintenance pipeline, which is too fragile to open the magic shield casually."

There is an alternate inspection entrance leading to the propulsion crew cabin near the explosion breach. Inside is a sloping corridor with dim lights. The elf officer pointed to the deep road ahead and reminded Hao Ren and Yizaks who were about to enter: "There are ahead." Both safety gates are closed to prevent air loss, I will open the first gate later, close the first gate in ten seconds and open the second gate—will remain open until you return. The second After the first gate is opened, you should face the vacuum environment directly, because the entire propulsion unit compartment has been ruptured, and there is no air outside the second gate, are you sure you really want to go in?"

Hao Ren nodded wordlessly, and walked into the deep and dark corridor with Y'zaks. The heavy steel door of the maintenance passage closed heavily behind them.

The first gate soon appeared in front of his eyes. It was a heavy gray alloy gate. Hao Ren found a button on the side of the gate to notify the outside. When he pressed the button, he saw a line engraved on the wall. Erim's text: "Persevere until the next day."

The meaning of this sentence seems a bit unclear, perhaps it is Arim's proverb.

Amidst the sound of gasping, the first gate opened, and there was a small airtight compartment in front. Hao Ren and Yizaks walked into the compartment, and waited for a while in anxiety. The first gate opened. Sure enough, it closed on time, the air in the compartment was quickly evacuated, and the second gate slowly opened.

When the air was sucked away, Hao Ren felt his heart beat a few times out of physiological instinct. He felt a little uncomfortable at first, but soon he was surprised and unexpectedly found that his body had adapted to this environment. : He couldn't breathe, but the instinctive reaction of the lungs seemed to be suppressed, the feeling of air tightness quickly receded, and a strange sense of compression was also felt on the skin. His body was rapidly adjusting to the vacuum, along with openings such as his eyes and ears: he felt numb in these places.

Hao Ren opened his mouth, wanting to say something to Y'zaks next to him, but found that there was no sound coming from him, and he couldn't hear any sound either.

Y'zaks noticed this situation, and a burst of green evil light flickered in his eyes, and Hao Ren heard a thunderous voice in his mind: "Talk to me with your thoughts."

"You can also communicate with others?" Hao Ren was quite surprised.

"This is the old line of the devil," Y'zaks smiled, and walked forward first, "Many guys will project their voices into the minds of humans, promising to induce humans to degenerate with power and forbidden knowledge. They used this method to add minions to themselves, but it fell out of fashion as the Church of Humanity promoted the anti-cheat guide. I haven't done it, but I am a demon after all."

The two of them advanced silently in the empty corridor, and arrived at a dilapidated place after turning a few narrow turns.

The monitoring room in the second half of the propulsion unit has been completely torn apart by the big bang. (to be continued~^~)
